WEAKENING DAILY

The Progress of Pulmonary Disease.

Just a few years past a young wife leaned upon the strong arm of a stalwart husband. He was so big, so strong, that she felt a sense of perfect protection, of complete security.

After so short a time the once strong man leans heavily on the arm of his wife, as he feebly and slowly keeps pace with her in the regular walk which is daily shortened because his strength fails daily.

That story scarce needs explanation. Amost anyone will recognize the consumptive in the weak and wasted husband, who is making his last stand against disease.

The prevalence of pulmonary diseases is a fact which should be squarely faced, and the danger of such diseases frankly admitted. When this is done we shall be ready to take prompt steps to cure disease whenever it attacks the lungs or other organs of respiration. Delay is always dangerous, often fatal. A great deal of the mortality caused by disease in general, and especially in the case of consumption, may be attributed to neglect which permits the malady to root itself firmly in the system.

PROMPT ACTION

when the first symptoms of disease appear will often save a serious and dangerous illness.

Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, by its cure of obstinate coughs, bronchitis, weak lungs, etc., has established a reputation as the best and most reliable put-up medicine for the cure of diseases of the organs of respiration. It is not a mere "cough medicine," loaded with opiates or narcotics - which soothe but cannot effect a permanent cure. "Golden Medical Discovery" contains no alcohol, neither opium, cocaine, nor any other narcotic, and the healing which results from its use proves it a real strength - giving, body - building medicine.

"Only for Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery I think I would be in my grave to-day," writes Mr. Moses Miles, of Hilliard, Uinta Co., Wyoming. "I had asthma so bad I could not sleep at night and was compelled to give up work. It affected my lungs so that I coughed all the time, both day and night. My friends all thought that I had consumption. My wife has taken Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and it has helped her so much she insisted on my trying his 'Golden Medical Discovery ' - which I did. I have taken four bottles and am now a well man, weighing 185 pounds, thanks to Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery."

WHEN DOCTORS DESPAIR.

The best way to judge of the wonderful curative power of "Golden Medical Discovery" is to note the numerous case in which it has cured when doctors despaired of restoring health. Look on a picture painted with absolute fidelity to the facts:

A darkened room, a gasping sufferer in the bed. Hectic burns in her face; emaciation has stripped the body of its comeliness; every now and again comes the harsh, tearing cough, followed by a trickling thread of blood which stains the lips. Friends look on helplessly. The doctor is pitiful but powerless. He says: "You will never be well again." At this crisis, when hope is dead and help seems impossible, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is tried and slowly and surely with, the use of the medicine health comes back - the cough grows less severe, the hemorrhages less frequent, there is a gain in flesh and in strength, and some glad day the chamber door opens and the family circle is once more rejoined. That is a true story, not of one woman or of one man, but of scores and hundreds of men and women, who, when all else had failed, have been perfectly and permanently cured by the use of "Golden Medical Discovery."

THE DOCTOR WAS WRONG.

"When I commenced taking your medicines, eighteen months ago, my health was completely broken down," writes Mrs. Cora L. Sunderland, of Chaneyville, Calvert Co., Md. "At times I could not even walk across the room, without pains in my chest. The doctor who attended me said I had lung trouble, and that I would never be well again. At last I concluded to try Dr. Pierce's medicines. I bought a bottle of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, took it, and soon commenced to feel a little better, then you directed me to take both the 'Golden Medical Discovery' and Favorite 'Prescription,' which I did. Altogether I have taken eighteen bottles of ' Golden Medical Discovery, ' twelve of the ' Favorite Prescription,' and five vials of 'Pellets.' I am now almost entirely well, and do all my work without any pain whatever, and can run with more ease than I could formerly walk."

SENSE AND SCIENCE

are on the side of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. In wasting diseases such as consumption the great need is nutrition.

"Golden Medical Discovery" cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, and so enables the strengthening of the body by food, which is no more lost or wasted but is assimilated and supplies nutrition to the weak body.

Accept no substitute for Golden Medical Discovery." There is nothing else "just as good" for coughs, weak lungs and other respiratory diseases.
